Attorney: priests claim 70 percent of U.S. bishops are gay

The following is an edited update from Catholic attorney Sharon Bourassa
regarding the situation in the Miami archdiocese. (Note: This statement
contains a graphic description.) 

"On March 21, 2006, Stephen Brady of Roman Catholic Faithful drove from
Illinois to Fort Lauderdale to meet with Christifidelis members from
All Saints Parish and parishioners from several other parishes -- St.
Elizabeth of Hungary, St. Vincent and St. Augustine's.  The subject of
Brady's visit was to discuss strategies for dealing with the 'gay
subculture' that has infiltrated the Miami archdiocese (as well as many
other dioceses across the U.S.), abuse of parish monies, corruption, and
non-adherence to Catholic teaching.

"According to a group of priests who remain faithful to Rome, 90 percent
of our priests in the Miami archdiocese are non-celibate gays who steal
and who own luxury properties. They are known to the hierarchy, and
they are bringing their agenda into all levels of the archdiocese.  The
number seems extremely high, but over and over again, the underground of
heterosexual priests say the figure is accurate.

"This 90 percent figure, according to these priests, is in the parishes,
grammar schools, hospitals, nursing homes, the chancery, high schools
and colleges.  One priest told us if the non-celibate gays were
removed, we would have only ten Catholic churches in union with Rome.
What we see is not what is.  The good priests who keep in contact with
me say that 70 percent of the U.S. bishops are homosexual.  Five of the
South Florida bishops are homosexual.  This is very difficult for the
heterosexual priests in the archdiocese.

"Brady suggested the following:

"When you get evidence, do a press release.  He will help us do this.

"Obtain your parish's directory.  Brady then will print on a postcard
the message we want to get across, and he will have it mailed from
Roman Catholic Faithful headquarters in Illinois.  This way, the
archdiocese knows that Roman Catholic Faithful is behind the endeavor.
Brady has been very successful in getting bishops and priests removed.

"Mr. Brady said, 'Follow the garbage.'  Pick up their garbage.  They are
arrogant and they will put it out at the church, the rectory and their
luxury homes.  This is how Brady found a bishop on a pornographic Web
site.

"One of the priests in a Miami parish is in a photo with his penis
hanging out from his shorts.  This priest is now out on bail for
sexually abusing a minor -- and there is more to come.

"Another priest runs nude on a beach in Miami."
